Shun Classic Bread Knife
Whether your bread is delicately tender or wonderfully crusty, the Shun Classic bread knife, with its wide, low-frequency serrations, is up to the task. Gently saw back and forth to cut perfect slices with no unsightly rips or tears. Shun Classic's tasteful and contemporary design features a beautiful Damascus-clad blade and D-shaped ebony pakkawood handle. Behind the knife's beauty is function: a razor-sharp blade offering precision performance. Shun Classic knives feature a core of proprietary VG-MAX super steel clad on both sides with 34 layers of Damascus stainless steel. The woodgrain pattern of the steel allows the blade to slide easily through food. The result is a knife that's sharp, durable and corrosion resistant, as well as beautiful to behold. NSF-certified knife meets the high-level safety standards for professional kitchens. Free sharpening on all Shun cutlery for as long as you own it. Click for details
Shun Pro Sho Yanagiba Slicer
For the true Japanese food aficionado, nothing compares to the scalpel-like precision of a single-bevel blade. The newly updated Shun Pro line features the same incredibly sharp chisel edges as in the past, combined with D-shaped pakkawood handles, which lend a secure and comfortable grip. The beautiful graffiti-etched blade is made with high-carbon VG10 steel, which takes and holds an edge longer than comparable knives. The blade backs are gently hollow ground, creating an air pocket between the knife and the food being cut, so the knife glides through food with quick precision. The wide shinogi (or blade bevel) makes sharpening these knives on a whetstone practically effortless. The yanagiba (or willow blade) slicer features a long, thin, "willowy" blade that's designed to be pulled through food. This creates the cleanest cuts imaginable and reduces the loss of natural juices. Most often used for preparing sashimi, yanagiba knives are also excellent for slicing meats and other moist foods. Due to the single-bevel design, Shun Pro knives are best suited for right-handed cooks. Free sharpening on all Shun cutlery for as long as you own it. Click for details
